Here comes the naked rose!

Floating across the stars!

A deep concept!

A seed of growth!

Moving by laws of motion!

With luscious crimson!

It floats the universe!

As it roams through space!

Across gravitational waves!

I hope nobody in the audience was hearing: "All you need is Drugs"

Egad!


Love being a fascinating word since we learn it has great value, though nobody know what it is exactly or even partially.


If you write poetry make sure that you find yourself needing to write it eventually.

This is where poetry surpasses the novel.

I have never really truly loved technology.

But I have been determined in spite of that to find something there.


Maybe we start where we begin, that life has a way of losing us.


Sonny wakes to a door with a heart in it dripping pink blood.

This is the first time he has ever opened his eyes having been asleep the entire time.

A nephew with a look in eyes like I had and still do.


I loved having a Dad like Paul Guttman and his memory is today the kind voice of reason. Thanks for everything and all those memories.


See new posts How many Iranians were killed in massacre Searching the web 27 results The query refers to a massacre involving Iranians, but it's ambiguous without specifying which event (e.g., historical like the 1988 prison executions or a recent one). Given the current date (January 12, 2026) and recent reports, it most likely refers to the ongoing crackdown on nationwide anti-government protests in Iran that began around late December 2025.These protests have seen widespread reports of security forces using lethal force, leading to descriptions of a "massacre" or "mass killings" by human rights groups, media, and activists. A nationwide internet and communications blackout has made exact verification difficult, with bodies reportedly taken directly to morgues or hidden, and estimates varying widely.Key Estimates for the 2025–2026 Protests (as of mid-January 2026)Conservative/verified figures from groups like Human Rights Activists News Agency (HRANA, US-based): At least 544 total deaths (around 496 protesters + 48 security forces) as of January 11, 2026, with hundreds more cases under review. Earlier updates cited ~490 confirmed protester deaths. Higher estimates amid blackout and mass reports:Iran International and some eyewitness/hospital accounts: At least 2,000 killed in recent 48-hour periods (e.g., early January 2026), with conservative totals suggesting thousands overall. Time Magazine and informal calculations from academics/expatriates: Up to 6,000 protester deaths (excluding some direct-to-morgue cases). PMOI/MEK (opposition group, often higher figures): Over 3,000 dead as of January 11, 2026, based on local sources, hospitals, and families across 195+ cities. Other groups (e.g., Iran Human Rights, Center for Human Rights in Iran): Confirmed lower hundreds (e.g., 192 protesters), but warnings of unverified reports in the thousands and descriptions of an unfolding "massacre." These numbers are fluid and disputed—the Iranian government has downplayed or denied large-scale killings, while independent verification is hampered by the blackout and repression. The toll includes protesters shot at close range, including children, with mass arrests (>10,000 reported in some accounts).For historical context, if referring to the 1988 massacre of political prisoners:Estimates range from ~2,800–5,000 (Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International minimums) to 30,000+ (some opposition/UN-related claims), primarily targeting groups like the PMOI/MEK. If this doesn't match the specific massacre you mean (e.g., 2019 protests, 2022 Woman Life Freedom uprising, or another event), provide more details for a clearer answer!
